Target Water Profile
Malty Full Bodied
Notes
44l of water - 20ml AMS and 1.5 campden tablets
Full Bodied Mash Schedule used
8l sparge carried out at end of Mash
Stirred during Mash
Pre boil gravity 1.040
100g brewing sugar added at start of boil
12.8ml (g) plum essence added 4 mins from end of boil
Post Boil - 30 litres @ 1.045 (Probably reduce total water next time)
Approx 26 litres in the fermenter
pitched 13.3g S-4 in fermenter
FG after 16 days 1.013
ABV 4.2%
1 x 10l corny full and 1 x corny with approx 13l in for bottling so probably around 23l in fermenter of useable beer.
First impressions are not too bad but too much plum.
Nice colour and malt flavour
Will brew again but use less water and less plum essence (probably 8ml) next time
recommendation for 39 litres of water next time, also up the alkalinity of the water to around 200ppm, so leave it at normal level,
